MG Carl McNair, USA (Ret.), former CO of
145th CAB in 1969, holds original 145th unit flag(62-69) which
was replaced during his tour. A former trooper of the BN had
given it to him recently. He presented it to the 145th CAB Association,
as long as it exists. Ultimately, it will be given to the Ft.
Rucker Museum.
